Research Associate

Posted date: 2017-Nov-24

Location: USA

us: Research Associate [1 y + | 100% | Duties: This project aims to perform the first seismic water-column study using a 3D seismic volume acquired in 1000m water depth within the Gulf of Mexico. The successful candidate will be involved in seismic data processing of large datasets and inversion, especially multichannel 3D seismic volumes using commercially available software (i.e. Seismic for Unix, Promax, Vista, or similar). The candidate will be responsible for implementing a data processing workflow of marine 3d seismic data with the main goal of identifying reflections occurring in the water column and possibly correlating them with water column structures | Minimum Requirements: This position requires either a PhD in Geophysics, Geology, Engineering, Computer Science, Ocean Science (or a closely related field), or an MS in Geophysics, Geology, Engineering, Computer Science, Ocean Science (or a closely related field) with three (3) or more years’ experience as a seismic data processor in the oil industry (CGG, ION, PGS, TGS, SLB etc.). The successful candidate will have a proven knowledge of seismic data processing of large datasets and inversion, especially multichannel 3D seismic volumes using commercially available software (i.e. Seismic for Unix, Promax, Vista, or similar). Proficiency in code computing and scientific programming (i.e. Phyton, Perl, C++, Matlab or similar) is required | Preferred Requirements: Good knowledge of oceanography and oceanographic processes and experience in analysis of satellite time series data of ocean parameters is desirable] / University of Mississippi (Ole Miss); Oxford, Mississippi, United States
